And "Nos da" is good night (again, I think). I was taught Welsh in school - it's a bit of a nightmare compared to French, German etc.Originally posted by VectraMan View Post"Bore da" is good day, I think.Comment

Bah bah, bah bah bah...baah bah bah. Bah bah bah, baaaaaah...Originally posted by gingerjedi View PostJust had an agent call with a perfect match contract apart from one part of the essential criteria that I couldn't meet... 'must speak Welsh', WTF? A bit of a long shot considering I live in England, it was SC cleared as well.
That is one niche I hadn’t thought about exploring, forget CCNA, Prince2, and ITIL, just learn Welsh and get security cleared…. BOOMED!!

Just say "yakki da", tell them you speak Welsh and get the gig.
You can absolutely bet your last penny that when you get on site everyone will be speaking English. Meanwhile, to be sure, take a crash audio course from Pimsleur. Seriously, you are a contractor and learning a little Welsh is not that hard.Cats are evil.Comment

Alternativvly get ZG to front for you at the interview. If he gets you the gig he can eat the pimp as a bonus

Unless it is in Anglesey. In which case, you'll be in for a surprise.Originally posted by swamp View PostYou can absolutely bet your last penny that when you get on site everyone will be speaking English.Drivelling in TPD is not a mental health issue. We're just community blogging, that's all.

Or anywhere in North Wales/Lleyn(sp?) Peninsula, Welsh is quite commonly used there these days.Originally posted by BrowneIssue View PostUnless it is in Anglesey. In which case, you'll be in for a surprise.
I didn't think its extensive use had spread to the Gower and other bits of South Wales, but since the Welsh Assembly came about I'm not surprised that the Welsh language facism has spread.Comment
